you can use ZoneMinder
http://www.zoneminder.com/
with or without DVR (ZoneMinder itself can act as video recorder).
Zoneminder has a lot of features (e.g. Motion Detection, Trigger, email delivery..), and a wui - web user interface.
It supports lan streaming (e.g. Ip Cam, Video server) and usb cam.
Or, if you want to save more $$, you could use also something like this:
http://icamview.com/
that convert usb camera in ip camera, providing Motion Detection, email delivery, ftp upload...
My 2 cents
Regards
